Air Force One

The man didn't utter a single word and held the trident he was stabbed with his hand. His skin glowed red and it looked as if the inner part of his body was on fire. His hands started getting heated up as he touched the trident. After half a minute or so the trident still looked the same.

"Even the old Gods couldn't put a scratch on the Sacred Trident. Do you think you can do so?" As he said that the water from the ocean came like a wave and doused on the man. The fire in his hands immediately went off.

Meanwhile, Air Force One was approaching the ocean pretty fast. As it was approaching, the people in the nearby bridge saw a huge wave of 100 metres of water coming out of the ocean by itself and it formed like a funnel.

The water funnel caught the Air Force and enveloped it's whole body. This led to the Air Force One slowing down significantly. By the time it reached the ocean it slowed down more. But since the plane was heavy it still entered the ocean.

The water in the ocean around the Air Force one formed a spherical hole while the funnel enveloping the plane still continued to slowing it down. After few more metres the plane finally stopped.

The the plane was brought on the surface of the ocean slowly. Tony who was nearby in his suit sighed in relief. This was a huge gamble he just played and it had paid off. Mera who did the hard work finally floated above.

"Thank you Queen of Atlantis, I owe you one."

"You owe both of us." Mera said as she was looking at the beach. Then she went to rescue the people from inside the plane. All the officials and the staff were able to come out safely. Even though some were bruised none were injured too much. Even Tony helped in the rescue process.

All the staff members were grateful to Mera. They recognized who Mera was as like SHIELD they too had watched the movies of John as it was the protocol now a days.

Next they both went to the beach to see the man still being pinned down by the Sacred Trident while Arthur sitting next to the man drenched in water.

"Now! Tell me where's Killian?"

The people on the bridge who saw this started clicking pictures and videos. And some even live broadcasted it in Youtube and Facebook.

"Isn't that King and Queen of Atlantis? They are real!" A man exclaimed.

"What's so surprising about that? Wasn't that already predicted and taken for granted by almost everybody? I gotta say Queen Mera looks so hot. Arthur is a lucky man being a half human." said another man in the sidewalk.

"Shh.. lower your voice. They don't look at us in a very good eye. Be careful if their army one day comes and kidnaps you back to Atlantis."

The people were discussing among themselves when Tony was interrogating the man. The man refused to answer no matter what.

"Well it doesn't matter. I was just playing with you. The suit that you sent the President with is already controlled. You have lost the war before it even started." Tony said with a victorious smile. The man who hadn't spoken a single word finally looked shaken. Now he understood that were being played from the beginning.

"Now since the President is captured we need to rescue him and show us our presentable face. Don't you think?" Arthur said as he pulled the trident out and directly stabbed at the head of the man killing him.

"Yes it's time to work."

They waited till evening when the tracker of Iron Patriot finally stopped flying.

"That's an old harbor of Roxxon Corporations. Figures. Let's go." Tony flew away while Mera and Arthur dived in the water and swam away fast. The people in the bridge who saw all this from distance cheered. They finally got to see the new superhero.

As all the three reached the harbor they saw the Iron Patriot suit tied by steel ropes high up in the air. "This Killian guy has a thing for dramatics. I am sure he would have done great as a movie director." Arthur said.

"I second that." Tony said. They were able to see many guards all around the harbor. There were way too many for three of them to handle at the same time.

"Tony we need back up." Mera said.

"Backup is 2 minutes out. We need to free the President first. IP can take him away."

"You go free the President. Until then we engage these people. Let's see how powerful are their mutations." Arthur said.

Tony flew away to the President to free him. As the guards saw an man in suit flying towards the President they immediately started shooting at it. But Arthur and Mera soon took action. Since it was an harbor filled with water around it was basically a playground for them.

Mera used water to attack the guards who were injected with Extremis Virus. Since water lowered the temperatures of their bodies it proved more effective while Arthur used both water and his trident to kill the guards. Mera looked majestic with water spears around and throwing it to whoever came near her.
